We had dessert at a neighbor's house years ago and she made panettone bread pudding with amaretto sauce. O.M.G. Incredible. This is the recipe she used.It does look fussy to make - for the experience yuh gotta say you made it at least once!
Go for it pictonguy!
I've been gifted Panettone several times. Truth to tell, never really saw what all the fuss was about. It was OK but certainly not something I personally would buy much less make.
